A visual and sonic exploration of the Decibel new music ensemble’s Complete John Cage Variations’ Project.

In 2012, Decibel new music ensemble devised ‘The Complete John Cage Variations Project’, an hour-long performance program featuring the eight Variations compositions (1958-76) composed by the important twentieth century composer John Cage (USA, 1912 -92).

This exhibition displays some of the computer-generated scores and sound making objects devised for this project. It aligns with the release of a book edited by Decibel members Cat Hope and Lindsay Vickery, entitled Actions|Remarks: John Cage’s Variations and the expansion of the score, sonic materials, space, and the environment which includes a CD recording of the Decibel Complete Variations Project on US Label Mode.

Opening night features a performance by Decibel.
Exhibition runs until 19 July.

Curated by Cat Hope with the Decibel new music ensemble.
